Minakulu Christians Launch Chapel Visits to Support Priests and Strengthen Evangelisation
Christians from Minakulu Catholic Parish began a program of chapel visits on Sunday, October 18, 2026, to provide food and essential supplies for their priests and deacon. Members from St. Peter and Paul Apworocero Chapel and St. Monica Atora Chapel started the visits by bringing items such as rice, chicken, bananas, beans, charcoal, maize, millet, sugar, cassava, and firewood to show appreciation for pastoral ministry.
Parish Priest Fr. Stephen Odwongo said the gesture was meaningful because it occurred on World Mission Sunday. He noted that visiting the clergy helps express solidarity and allows priests and parishioners to strengthen their bonds within the faith community. The parishioners started the program themselves as a practical way to support the welfare of their clergy.
